This page summarizes how to connect to the Synorix testnet using -testnet with synorixd and synorix-cli. Parameters follow Bitcoin-style testnet conventions where noted.
Important: Testnet coins have no monetary value and must not be used for production or as a stand-in for real funds. They can be reset or inflated by the network at any time.

Use a dedicated datadir for testnet so it does not mix with mainnet state.
# Daemon (testnet) synorixd -testnet -datadir=/path/to/synorix-testnet-data # CLI (same datadir) synorix-cli -testnet -datadir=/path/to/synorix-testnet-data getblockchaininfo
Security
- Do not expose RPC to the public internet. Keep
rpcbindon127.0.0.1unless you fully understand firewall rules, authentication, and the risks of remote RPC. - Testnet wallets and keys are for testing only; do not reuse testnet practices (weak passwords, open ports) on mainnet setups.
